Take a ringside seat next to A. J. Liebling at some of the greatest
fights in history. Here is Joe Louis's devastating final match;
Sugar Ray Robinson's dramatic comeback; and Rocky Marciano's rise
to heavyweight glory. The heated ringside atmosphere, the artistry
of the great boxers and the blows and parries of the classic fights
are all vividly evoked in a volume described by Sports Illustrated
as 'the best American sports book of all time'. 'A rollicking god
among boxing writers ... before Tom Wolfe and Hunter S. Thompson
were out of diapers, Liebling was taking his readers on excursions
through the hidden and often hilarious levels of this bruised
subculture ... the Master' Los Angeles Times 'Nobody wrote about
boxing with more grace and enthusiasm' The New York Times
